    v2v: test-harness: Describe how to get the test harness.
    
    I don't think it's worth building the test harness as a separate
    Fedora package.  It just means the harness gets out of date
    quickly and is hard to install.  Instead the test cases can now
    be configured to use the libguestfs source directory to get the
    test harness.
